​Sunday is "Patron Parking" day and one of the best and oldest traditions of the Grand Prix.  Patron Parking is a reserved parking area on the Schenley Park golf course to watch the races. This is the day you can bring your "other car" but still park at the Cortile.  Our Tifosi area at the Cortile with private track viewing compliments the Patron Parking atmosphere.  Enjoy.  NOTE: Tifosi Parking Sunday: $75 /car. Car must be approved by Cortile Staff. (No Minivans)

Wine on 9

​

Cortile participants gracious donations and support to the Pittsburgh Parks Conservancy raised  funds for many years for the restoration of the Westinghouse Pond.  We now have the most opulent trackside viewing area of any of the car shows during the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix. 

Mazza Winery has partnered with the Cortile to host a private wine tasting during the PVGP Parade and opening ceremonies on Sunday.   The VIP area is only open to registered Cortile Car Show participants and will kick off around 11am and run until about 3pm

​There may be a limited food selection of prepared sandwiches and food trays.  Grab a pizza in the Cortile if you prefer that for lunch.

The entire area is shaded within the tree lined track. It's one of the very best places to watch the vintage races cars jockey for position into the apex of Turn 9 and the execute passes on their way up to German Hill.

"Wine on 9" is the brainchild of Deb Schurko, of Pittsburgh Opera gala's fame. According to Deb, "This is really how we've got to use such a gorgeous place! It's so beautiful to begin with and what better place to sit back, savor some good wine and watch vintage racing! It's just the kind of classy thing that the Cortile has become known for!"

We could not agree more! ​
